Way Back When-sday

Sorry again for not posting a lot in the last few weeks. I don't know why it's been so crazy. When I finally sit down to post something I can't think of anything to post. I tell myself I'll get to it tomorrow. Anyway, I wanted to thank my husband again for the gift card he gave me for our anniversary, which was back in December. It was for a place called Douglas J Day Spa Salon. This place is awesome! I felt like I was some sort of celebrity or something, this is how they make you feel. When I first got there they took me to a small dim lit room where I was to wait for my massage, in there was some glasses, lemon water & biscotti. I met my massage therapist, and then they brought in a large bowl of warm soapy water to soak my feet. Then I received a 90min massage. Then I was walked to a different area where I picked out two bottles of nail polish for my manicure/pedicure. Had my feet soaked again, sea-salt scrub, paraffin treatment, more message, and the same for my hands. All the while they never let me run out of lemon water, made sure I had a magazine to read. I've never felt so pampered my whole life! Let me tell you what, this was the cats meow!! What was also nice about this place is that there weren't a lot of bright lights, and it smelled awesome in there. I can tell you this, I will be going back, maybe not for a while, but I'll be going back!! If you do happen to visit the site, take the virtual tour, it's really cool. Thanks again to my wonderful hubby!! ( I love you more than anything!)
 Well, I tried to figure out some pic's for 'Way Back When-sday' and here's what I come up with. A few pic's of taking Cody to the beach along Lake Michigan back in 2004.

I love this picture! He was so busy playing in the sand, totally oblivious to anyone else there! I like times like that, when I can take his pic without him even knowing it!

F4 - A Few of My Favorite Pictures

  Sorry I've been slaking this last week. It's been kind of busy. Easter Sunday was really nice, spent with family & lots of food! Then Monday it was back to the grind stone, Cody went back to school, and I've been working a lot this last week. On top of that, I had to catch up on continuing education credits on line, and that takes a lot of time. So my excuses are out of the way.....
 
  I couldn't think of what photos to use for today with Friday Foto Finish Fiesta, so I just pulled out a few at random, but they are some of my favorites. And by the way who has pics of their family that they really don't like, I know I have some of myself that I don't care for, but I'll save that for another post.

               These are some of the foto's from our trip to San Diego. This was the Train Museum. Cody loved it! Mike & I actually liked it too! I couldn't believe how huge the place was. I don't think he'll ever forget it!

Way Back When-sday

  Thinking about how small Cody was when he was when he was born, a preemie at that! The doctor was going to send me home because my water hadn't broke yet, and thank God for the nurses that caught some problems when they did or he probably would have been still born. Every time I had a contraction his heart rate would drop considerably. So the doctor broke my water, and after 19 1/2 hours of labor, and putting me in every sort of position possible, and the only way he would tolerate the contractions was me lying on my left side, he finally decided to pop into the world, as they were prepping me for a c-section. Then we finally found out that the problem was the cord was wrapped around his neck, abdomen, and a leg. The nurses were awesome, and I can't thank them enough.

  So these were the first pic's, before they took him away from me for almost a day. So thinking back I'm grateful about this Way Back When-sday. Everyone take cake care and be grateful for today!!  ;0)
